Music Composition, Improvisation Orchestration and Music Theory
I'm a Doctoral student of composition and besides composition I tutor students in theory, solfege, musical form analysis, improvisation, making arrangements, basic vocal training, orchestration etc.
Composing music is a special craft through which You can practically examine any theoretical knowledge. It's a synergy of many skills like harmony, rhythm, counterpoint, instrument knowledge, musical notation etc. If You want to create Your own music, learn how to improvise, get a feedback for Your each step from an experienced composer, then this course is for You. Music composition is knowing the structure of music, no matter what genre You are striving for. We can work on classical, jazz, pop music and any other style.
Arrangements and Sibelius Software:
Learn how to write for ensembles, from string trio, quartet to big band and symphony orchestra.
Improvisation:
learn how to create music fast and get the best result with minimum of technique on any instrument.
Music theory:
Learn scales, modes, chord progressions. How to use each scale in Your solo, improvisation etc.

About Me
For Joseph Beuys “artist” was the word to describe the essence of what it means to be a human being: The deep need and fundamental ability to create and be creative.I started teaching with a belief that everyone indeed has an artist inside themselves and wanted to prove that through my practice.
To all my students I want to share my experience from my music education process and fill in the gaps which I consider to be left out from the literature or not pointed out clearly enough. Music making and understanding should be a pleasant experience, no matter how complex it gets...

So far, the class with Damjan was really good! He is kind, patient and loves what he does. I will definitely keep having classes with him.
Through my courses I will teach all levels of piano playing. My approach will consist of forming an individual repertoire according to each student's needs. In case that students want to integrate piano lessons with composing, that is also something I would strongly encourage, since piano is the most frequently used instrument for composing music.

The more detail, the better.

Lydia
Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student.
My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music." Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (USA). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.
